Good Product or Nonsense?

http://store.acousticsounds.com/d/16871/Optrix-Optrix_CD_Spray-CD_Care
A friend loaned me his CD cleaner. I have a photo to upload but there seems no accommodation for this.
'OPTRIX" is the name. Label says it is a clarifier, cleanser for CDs and also stops "Skipping". Cures cancer?
Comments from those who have used this please?

It really doesn’t matter anymore. The product is not manufactured anymore. Which is awful because I used it for years. If you look at the link given to Acoustic Sounds it says product is no longer available. It says the same for MusicDirrct also. If you google the name, the product does not show up anymore. People say CD’s are gone, so I guess the cleaners had to go too.

Been using Optrix for years on my DVD/Blue Ray rentals bc they are filthy and these business's use some kind of Meyer product on them after kids with peanut butter and chocolate have been handling them.  Really not to concerned about the 'sonic improvements' but if you don't like pixellating videos, this stuff is a must! 
On another subject I also use 'ECO 3' by Nordost on the label side of my rental disks.

Two products not to use:
Optrix- it does cause many CD’s not to be readable months later.

Essence of Music does scratch up the CD’s.
David Pritchard

Not to call David out but I am wondering if the people using the Essence of Music who stated it scratches CD’s returned it for a Refund since there is a 30 Day Satisfaction Guarantee.

I just finished 60 CD’s this last Weekend and I saw no sign of any Scratching using it. I was very impressed with the Product BTW..

Maybe they replaced the crappy clothes with better ones. It’s about time, this is what, four years later? Furthermore, if you can hear an improvement you’re a better man than I am, Gunga Din.
